Purpose

My Purpose is the Great Commission

October 23, 2022 • Gareth Bail • 2 Corinthians 5

This week, we look at the last of our distinct and connected purposes: The Great Commission, one of Jesus' final commands to His followers.

The Common Good

October 16, 2022 • Mark Bailey • Luke 10:25–35

Our calling for "The Common Good" means we have the privilege to be an expression of Christ wherever life takes us. With the Lord's empowerment, we can be moved with compassion to be a blessing to those in need.

Find Purpose in Community

October 9, 2022 • Marie Bailey • Ephesians 3:10

God wants to show us our purpose within His purpose. God wants to declare His love, delight and passion for the church, His beautiful bride, and to inspire and empower us to live out our Purpose together as His body.

My Purpose is Christlikeness

October 2, 2022 • Tamara Burdon • Philippians 2:5–15, Ephesians 2:10

This week we consider what it means to be “likeminded” in Christ! Why should we desire this purpose for our lives?

My Purpose is Christ

September 25, 2022 • Mark Bailey • Philippians 3:7–11

We are on a journey of discovering more about our purpose here on earth. It is important to understand that scripture teaches that we are called to at least five general purposes. Many people think they need to “find themselves” by looking in many different places. In order to understand our purpose, we have to find ourselves in Christ. Everything starts with knowing Him and finding our value in Him. Jesus said in John 17:3: “Now this is eternal life: that they know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent.” Before we can go and live out our purpose, we first have to come to Jesus and learn how to draw from Him, the well that never runs dry.

'Where Do You Want to Get to?'

September 18, 2022 • Mark Bailey • Ephesians 2:1–10

Have you ever come across the story of Alice in Wonderland? In a conversation between Alice and the Cheshire Cat, Alice asked, "Would you tell me please, which way I ought to go from here?" "That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the cat. "I don't much care where," said Alice. "Then it doesn't matter which way you go," said the cat. In order to grow in our purpose, we have to start with the question – “Where do I want to get to?”

God's Heart for CityChurch

September 11, 2022 • Mark Bailey • Isaiah 61:1, Matthew 5:13–16

Vision is extremely important. The Message translation of Proverbs 29:18 says: “When people cannot see what God is doing, they stumble all over themselves… But when they attend to what God reveals, they are most blessed”.
